Magazine’s official website in the Lessons section, so log on now to check out Dave’s detailed, exclusive notes on the song, transcription, drum set diagram, and more (see the link below).
MACHINE HEAD bludgeoned into the charts last fall with a remarkable #22 Billboard Top 200 chart debut for their NEW album, 'Unto The Locust'. Released in North America on September 27th, 2011 via Roadrunner Records, 'Unto The Locust' is widely-regarded as a NEW opus in modern Metal. In 2011, 'Unto The Locust' was voted #1 on Sirius XM Liquid Metal, #2 in Revolver Magazine’s end-of-year list, and #31 in Decibel Magazine’s Top 100 of 2011, just to name a few. The record has garnered stellar reviews referring to it as “a breathtaking work”, “one of 2011’s essential albums”, “a modern metal masterpiece”, “the most accomplished record [MACHINE HEAD] has ever recorded”, and “album of the year” by several of today’s top music publications and entertainment journalists.
